I use powershell with command "taskkill /F /IM chrome.exe /T " to kill all chrome tabs and then start ui vision, Chrome Pop up with “Restore Pages” message, then it is failed to run ui vision as Error # 180: No Connection to browser tab appear. There is no such problem when i use version 6.2.8.
Hi, we are aware of this issue but it is very hard to recreate.
Do you have a way to trigger this error reliably?
PS: Also, please retest with V8.0.1 - some changes have been made.
Hi, same error. Running v8.01
I also use powershell to trigger, and use taskkill.
I tried to see if the problem was in chrome and its “restore pages” popup. It worked for a couple of days and then the same result with error 180 after trying this fix:
** Navigate to the following path: C:\Users<username>\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default*
** Search Preferences file*
** Open file with notepad*
** Search the value “exit_type”:“Crashed” and change it to “exit_type”: “none”*
** Search “exited_cleanly” and it should be “exited_cleanly”:true*
** Save & Close the preferences file*
** Right-click on the file and make it read-only else chrome will update this file again with initial values.*
The fix removed the popup for restore pages but did not fix the problem.
When i get the error 180 message, it stops working until i fix it. To fix it, i can close the tab where the error 180 comes, start the powershell script again, it then says No tab with id …, then i close chrome. After that i can run the powershell script and the macro works.
When i still have the error 180 and trigger the macro manually with in chrome, they run ok. But not from the powershell script i trigger with task scheduler in windows (Win 10 21H2).
if i start tools for programmer and look for error this comes up:
If i can help in any way then let my know. i get the error now and then.
Thanks for these very helpful details!
What we would love to have is a way to reliably trigger the “180” error, then we could debug it. Now we have to run a test for days just to see the error once or twice.
Hi I get it regularly as well, do you have log files I could sent each time it happens?
in regards to the 180 I found that it happens in connection with a failed macro in hdd mode.
I use storage in browser and not on harddrive and still have the error 180 problem.
Yes i seem to get all the time now. My macros never finish the last couple of days. I have 13 marcros running in a row every hour. It now always fails on the same macro.
I can se if a can export my macros and script and remove some credentials and such.
Have you tried to reload the macros and run an empty macro?
{
"Name": "OpenRPA",
"CreationDate": "2022-8-30",
"Commands": []
}
What is this supposed to do?
Ok. This might help.
To clarify: So from your 13 macros, “only” one fails with the 180 error?
I have the situation that after I had a 180 I get it each time after that until I reload the macro and run one that works… Else each time I try to run a macro via the api I get an 180… (that said, my case is with hdd…)
Therefore my suggestion…
I can replicate the error now.
If i create a macro, trigger it by my script, and if the macro takes longer then my time out in my powershell script, the script runs Taskkill /im chome.exe /F and starts next macro, then the 180 error comes.
Interesting I kill chrome after a failed macro as well…
Here is my macro

Created an account only to say: I have a reliable way to replicate the error.
Essentially I use a specific profile directory for Chrome on linux and I trigger an empty macro via command line: the script does not start and gives error 180. Ui vision up to date, version 8.0.1. I can share all needed to replicate (Profile directory, dummy script, and command). Runs fine on loads of other profiles.
I deleted most of my personal processes from the profile but I would rather not sharing openly on internet just in case - please let me know how to share that with you?
Hello @james - please send your information to team AT ui.vision - in your email please mention this forum post. Thanks, we look forward to testing it 
The same thing happens to me and managed to reproduce the error safely. In my case, the process is invoked by crontab every 2 hours. To prevent it from launching while it’s still running, before starting I run “killall /opt/google/chrome/chrome”. The problem is that if this killall is executed while the old process was working, the new process gives error 180.
How to simulate it?
run:
google-chrome “file:////home/ubuntu/RPA/dummy.html?direct=1¯o=folder/macro”
run while the macro is active:
killall /opt/google/chrome/chrome
run again:
google-chrome “file:////home/ubuntu/RPA/dummy.html?direct=1¯o=folder/macro”
Good news: A fix for this issue should be available in about one week
The #180 issue is fixed with V8.1.1
Hi, i upgraded to v8.1.1.
I dont get error 180. But after the first macro completes i get Error, no tab with id…
Closed chrome and tried again, same result. Reset all browser settings and same results. Rebooted my hyperv vm and same result. Is it just me or have any one else the same issue?
It works to run a macro manually via the UI vision addon in chrome, but not via powershell and task scheduler.
